Slow down, way down, in a Canadian canoe

Toronto, Canada - In a world where everyone is under pressure to go faster, there is a way to change the tempo of your life. A Canadian canoe trip will help you take a deep breath, slow down, and relax.

You might explore our world-famous Algonquin Park. Known as the gateway to the Canadian wilderness, it's within easy reach of Toronto. Here, amid endless forest, lakes, and rivers, you'll watch loons glide across a lake at dawn, see moose languidly grazing, or hear the howl of a wolf at dusk. Whether you'd like to explore the natural history of the park, fish, or simply dip your paddle into crystal-clear waters, Algonguin Outfitters will take care of every detail.

Or, if you prefer something more remote, you might try one of Canoe Canada Outfitters' trips. They'll take you into the most pristine wilderness in North America: the 4800-square-kilometre Quetico Park, where hunting, roads, and development are not allowed. Fly into the park, and paddle your way back to civilization.

Both firms are part of Paddling Ontario (canoekayakcanada.ca), an alliance of Canada's most respected adventure travel providers. Committed to the highest standards in safety and environmental responsibility, these dedicated hosts and guides offer a diverse selection of wilderness experiences for enthusiasts at every skill level.

Life is so much better when you have a chance to slow down. And what better place to experience the joys of slow than in a Canadian canoe?
